Conversation Countdown Review: Can you speak in a week?

In this post I give a brief overview of Benny Lewis' course: Conversation Countdown, and how you can use it to get a very fast start in learning any foreign language.

What is Conversation Countdown?

Conversation Countdown is a video course created by Benny Lewis, the man behind Fluent in 3 Months. The course teaches you how to have a conversation with a native speaker of your target language in just 7 days.

What you'll learn in the course

How to find native speakers to practice with, no matter where you live

Avoid the awkwardness usually associated with starting to speak a new foreign language

Develop confidence to speak in front of other people

How to immerse yourself, just like children when they learn languages

How to choose the words that are most effective to learn, so you don't learn unneccesarily rare words, you'll never use

How to make your learning into a mission, for higher success

How to become an independent, self-driven language learner

How to start speaking a language way faster than you thought were possible

How to have your first conversation with a real person in your target language – within a week.

What does it cost?

The course costs $97 for lifetime access. However you can often pick it up in a bundle deal, so be sure to keep an eye out for that 🙂
